“Experience is a brutal teacher, but you learn fast.”
“If experience is life's best teacher then why do we have to learn by example?”
“If there were only success in your life, you would not learn anything. Leadership is experience and you are still young. You still have much to learn about our people and war; it should not come easy to you. If it did, you would be robbed of life's most valuable teacher.”
“You know what a learning experience is? A learning experience is one of those things that says, "You know that thing you just did? Don't do that.”
“From a good teacher you may learn the secret of listening. You will never learn the secret of life. You will have to listen for yourself”
